Facebook is just a phenomenon - amassing so many users in such a short time. I guess for me Google is based on solid business practice, and sells an essential commodity - information. Facebook however, sells "social networking" and user interaction with its' endless apps, which is by it's very nature, a bit faddish. While Facebook is an advertisers dream, I guess user interest in it, as with other social networking platforms can and possibly will slowly die out.Timothy Ngnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-5403977940034092982007-10-11T21:57:00.000-07:002007-10-11T21:57:00.000-07:00When a company like Google can provide a good serv...When a company like Google can provide a good service, and whether a senior staff (who might have got rich) left for more excitement are 2 different things. <BR/><BR/>It is quite common and natural that senior staffs leave a company which gave them excitement or whatever, but not now.Andy Wonghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13275514659971793139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-59786789916605241922007-10-11T19:22:00.000-07:002007-10-11T19:22:00.000-07:00A couple things:1) You are going from a company th...A couple things:<BR/><BR/>1) You are going from a company that has become 100% essential to almost any task people perform on a daily basis, to a company where you can poke people.<BR/><BR/>2) If you worked that long at Google then you are already rich.

Most of these Googlers could probably retire on what they have already made. Now they are rolling the dice for higher stakes. The tech world seems to be looking very hard for "the next big thing" and Facebook seems to have convinced a lot of journalists and bloggers that they are it.<BR/><BR/>Yesterday I read that Facebook was destined to succeed because its founder was a lot like Bill Gates.<BR/><BR/>Excuse me? Do we really want to go down that road again? I think not.<BR/><BR/>If Facebook is going to succeed (long term) it will need to do so in the style of Google, not in the style of Microsoft. Already Facebook pages are heavy with animated and annoying ads. The system becons you with anoying e-mail messages to come onto Facebook because something has happened that needs your attention. <BR/><BR/>For those who want to do messaging with Facebook, let's see the company give each user thier own e-mail address, allow web or POP reading of mail. Allow forwarding of those messages to Gmail and allow users of other e-mail systems to send messages into Facebook without having to sign on to see their own hideous "home page".<BR/><BR/>I think the vast majority of Facebook users (like the Myspace users they seem to be emulating) don't have a clue.<BR/><BR/>Of course that doesn't mean the company won't be a success. Our clean Gmail-like interfaces of today may go the way of Cable TV, with so much of the bandwidth dedicated to advertising, both explicit and subliminal, that there is hardly anything left over for actual user data.<BR/><BR/>Facebook won't be the first to try and make money appealing to 'tards with "oooh, something shiny!"BP/CMBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16570427618324025947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-15922454520951657952007-10-11T09:45:00.000-07:002007-10-11T09:45:00.000-07:00Ex-Googler: "... and the only thing slowing me dow...Ex-Googler: "... and the only thing slowing me down is how quickly I can go."<BR/><BR/>That's a polite implication that at Google, other things slow some people down.
